BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE
Anne Wheelock was a Boston community activist who served in several different organizations that dealt mostly with urban renewal. She served on the Tent City Task Force and also worked with the Coalition for Responsible Development to make sure that low income residents would not be displaced by the construction of Copley Place. She also sought to have affordable housing built for those whose living situation would ultimately be affected by Copley Place. Along with urban renewal, Anne Wheelock also took interest in the various minorities in the Boston area, especially those with a Portuguese or Central American background. She made sure their stories were told and even advocated for affirmative action, especially on projects such as Copley Place.
Collection: SC-0053 Anne Wheelock
SCOPE AND CONTENT
These papers include a wide array of reports, correspondence, proposals, and personal notes from various organizations, such as the Tent City Task Force, the Citizens Review Committee for Copley Place, and the various building companies that were sought out as potential candidates to build Tent City for those who would be affected by the construction of Copley Place. These papers touch on multiple subjects, including the environmental impact of Copley Place, the retail and property impacts, and the potential housing impacts. Among these papers are documents that also concern the current and future renewal plans for other parts of Boston, as well as the rights of minority ethnic groups. This collection consists of mostly paper copies, with several pamphlets, maps, and booklets included as well. Original folder titles and the original order of the records were maintained during processing.
